Jamie Lovemark, a 19-year-old who has just finished his freshman year at USC, fired a 3-under-par 67 during the first round of the AT&T National. Lovemark won the NCAA individual title this year and is playing in his fourth professional tournament. Although the 19-year-old is the youngest player in the field, he looked as poised and confident as a veteran on tour. The young amateur played alongside Michael Putnam (-1), who finished second at the NCAA Championships in 2005, and Andrew Buckle (E), a young Aussie who is trying to make an early impression on the PGA Tour, after graduating last year from the Nationwide Tour.
